To celebrate this dreamy dairy, here are more than 40 recipes for the cheese-lover in your life (which is everyone you know) - from snacks like wasabi & parmesan popcorn and bacon-wrapped mini mozzarella balls, heartier fare like seven-cheese pizza (yes, seven!) and quadruple cheese burgers, to sweet lemony cream cheese donuts and cheddar ice cream. Because everything tastes so much better with cheese. Cheese may not be the healthiest food you can eat but it does make us happy.
